Fox News Addresses Ebola Truths

It’s official…Hell has just frozen over!

Top News Today
Fox News is not known for being truthful, factual or unbiased. What they are traditionally known for is stirring political bias, being a puppet for the ultra-conservative right wingers and for frequently causing general mass hysteria among a segment of society who just doesn’t know any better.

Yesterday, that all changed.

In a segment on Ebola, Fox News anchor Shepard Smith looked directly into the camera, admitted that his own network and various others have been “hyping” the threat of Ebola for T.V. ratings, then he decided to tell the truth. It was so honest and so “un-Fox” like, that if hell didn’t actually freeze over, the devil is almost assuredly shopping for portable heaters to take the cold edge off of his domain.

Top News Today
Watch the Fox segment. It speaks volumes on where we are as a society and how we allow news programs (who are in business for money and ratings) to affect our beliefs and daily lives.

OK WASSUP! tracks the top news today, including the shockingly truthful live television segment on Ebola from Fox News.

Frankly, IMO, to the degree that a sane and intelligent voice exist on Fox Noise, it's Shepard Smith. And I absolutely agree with him regarding the Flu and why we should definitely be concerned about the harmful, even deadly, impact it continues to have on the lives of thousands of Americans each year. Now…having said all that. I find Shep's dismissive take on Ebola's potentially devastating impact on America to be almost as arrogant and offensive as those who engage in the deliberate Overhyping of that deadly disease. I'm equally turned off by Shep's belief that we should trust our government's claim that *We* are prepared to handle an Ebola outbreak…when I've seen nothing…NOT one responsible act…over the past 3 weeks to suggest that THAT is indeed true. In fact, now that we know that the CDC actually gave the 2nd nurse permission to get on a commercial plane and… Read more »

And on a related note this morning (Fri. Oct. 17th)…. "Dallas Health Care Worker Who Handled Specimen From Ebola Victim Quarantined On Cruise Ship" WASHINGTON (AP) — Obama administration officials said a Dallas health care worker who handled a lab specimen from a Liberian man who died from Ebola is self-quarantined on a Caribbean cruise ship and is being monitored for infection. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in a statement Friday that the woman had shown no signs of the disease and has been asymptomatic for 19 days. The government is working to return the woman and her husband to the U.S. before the ship completes its cruise. The White House said the State Department was working to secure their transportation home. An administration official who was not authorized to be named and requested anonymity said the cruise ship had stopped in Belize but officials there would not allow… Read more »

I agree with you Truth that the CDC leader and others haven't been all the way truthful with us. But I get what Shepard was trying to do. There's a lot of people panicking about Ebola right now and he was basically trying to calm the public from completely losing it. There's a lot of old white people who watch that channel and believe everything they hear and they needed to calm down. Fox is known for stirring things up as much as possible so it was good to see them do something responsible for a change.
